Awesome photos guys! Great shots f@tony and eskimo.

eskimo, do you have a larger version of the photo? Ideally 800 pixels wide. If you win we will need the image at least 600 pixels wide. Do you know the exact date it was taken?

Looks like it’s going to be another great week for photos. smile

This is such a neat photo.. I was just recently in Africa and if you take away the snow it could be the Serengeti. Where were you standing in regards to the valley?

This week is full of optical illusions raspberry

Have another check at where the pole holding the roof up is - I think you may find that he is in no real danger at all wink

 

The only danger here was after landing you had to hit the skids before ending up in the gully below.

It was pretty tempting not to carve into this gully of fresh but the tales of woe saved us a ski patrol rescue.

Apparently once dudes go into the gully they aren’t seen for hours, a guy lost his board down the back a day earlier and was prepared to face the heat at the rental
company than hike down for a look.
